Which do you enjoy more working out or eating?

If for some reason you were suddenly only able to either eat or work out which one would you chose? Imagining that your body wouldn't change or be effected positively or negatively.

I'm torn, I love to eat but I love to run and I love weights!

Working out, unfortunately...

Not the best thing for someone who needs to gain weight.

As long as you don't group all sports into working out I pick eating. I love lifting weights but I love food more no doubt.

Eating!

If you "enjoy" working-out, then you're not working-out hard enough!

Functional requirements to live: Water first, Food second.

I would choose water as first priorty.

Food or eating as second priority (knowing I have a ample supply of food (within my own body) for a certain time period)

This would be my BASE priorty.

IF it was a function just to survive.

How much I would exercise (because "methods" of exercise are ALWAYS available to us), would depend on whether I needed to conserve energy and water--dependent on the environment representation.


I choose LIFE over working out if it came right down to that question, and then use my nutrition knowledge to enable me to survive.

Best wishes,


Chillen

If I my body was not affected negatively or positively, I would choose working out. Because then I could get lost in some jungle or island and would be able to just walk/swim home without losing any energy at all. In fact, I would save so much more time just here and there not having to cook, eat, etc. My mental and physical performance would be static. ^^^^ would be awesome

well since it wouldn't affect my body in either way why work out? I wouldn't have any progress and would be demotivated after a few years.
Lei makes a good point too though. But I love the taste of food

If you never got hungry ever again, I don't think you'd miss it too much.

It's kind of like being deaf but being really really good at reading what people are saying.

Most of us prefer to "eat" and I could do with a padlock on my fridge. Do we eat to live or do we eat to live?

That's do we eat to live or do we live to eat?

but food still tastes good. And I don't think I would work out without seeing results. I love the actual process of working out, but the most fun is when you can add more weight.
